GET $100 OFF TUITION IN GET IT DONE!
WORKSHOP
You're a motivated, creative person, and I'm sure you find it sort
of depressing when you occasionally get stuck, aren't sure what to do or keep
putting off what you know you must do. And I know that you've experienced the
joy of forward motion. Taking positive action is exhilarating, isn't it? And
it's contagious - my clients often report across-the-board successes that are
seemingly unrelated to their project.
So, what would you like to get done
before Thanksgiving?
Because getting it done is so much better than not
getting it done.
The fun, personalized "YES YOU CAN" energy of the Get It
Done! Workshop has been well documented:
"Illuminating. Logical.
Surprising."
"These sessions have put me into such a great, productive and
fulfilling phase...Thanks!"
"Intelligent. Organized. Funny &
Inspiring."
"Learning my priorities and feeling more at peace"
"Digging,
exploring - receiving fun/insightful/witty feedback"
"Fabulously
enlightening. Achingly amusing (just slightly painful). Powerful."
"A
facilitated, supportive, safe learning environment"
The Get It Done!

20% OFF FALL
PLAYWRIGHTING WORKSHOP WITH TREY NICHOLS
Saturdays 10am - 1pm
September 6,
13, 20, 27, October 4, 11, 18, 25
Trey Nichols is offering 20% discount to
his fall playwriting workshop for NUEA West members. The workshop is geared for
intermediate to advanced playwrights, though new writers are welcome. In a fun,
supportive, and rigorous atmosphere, each playwright brings up to eight pages of
new work to be read aloud and discussed in depth each week. At the conclusion
of the 8-week session, readings are held in a casual setting with local actors.
The aim of the workshop is to further the development of each playwright's
unique voice and vision, with the goal of completing a one-act play or the first
act of a full-length play by the end of the 8-week course. Many plays developed
in the workshop have gone on to receive readings, workshops, and productions at
theatres around the country.
Trey Nichols is a playwright, actor, and
solo performer, and has written more than a dozen full-length and one-act plays,
including THE MEADOWS, FATHERS AT A GAME, ONE SLIT HEAD, and BODY FOUND. His
solo show, A LESSON IN PROPER BOW-FLUFFING TECHNIQUE (Storey Productions/Moving
Arts), was nominated for a 2005 Ovation Award for Solo Performance. His most
recent play, SUNNI TRIANGLE, received a staged reading in The War Plays Project,
produced by playwright EM Lewis. Trey is a company member and the former
Literary Director of Moving Arts, the highly acclaimed theatre in Los Angeles
where from 1995 to 2007 he produced and moderated the company's Playreading
Series and aided in the development of many new plays by playwrights from all
across the United States. Trey received a B.S. in Theatre from Northwestern.
He is a member of the Dramatists Guild of America and the Alliance of Los
Angeles Playwrights.
The workshop is limited to eight playwrights. The
venue is a private residence on LA's westside.
Fee is $250 ($200 for NUEA
WEST members). For info about the next session or testimonials, e-mail
treynich@gmail.com
